I'm with Dave on this. My '00 came with both the stock and Sargent seats. I tried the stocker. It lasted about 40 minutes and hasn't been out...
Dave, I apologize but we were on a vacation and I forgot to close this out- I got one somewhere off the screen. Thanks anyhow.
Motion Pro will make your longer cable. My 5th Gen has 4" longer throttle cables by them. I've used their custom length build service a number of...
Well, then, how about right-side-shift, up-for first four-speed, as in the avatar over there? Manual spark retard lever for starting, too... don't...
Having gotten a bit north of 70 myself, I do have to begin thinking about the day to come when it won't be safe to ride anymore. And, what...
My fifty-seven-year old wife, who rides around on our '00 5th gen a pretty fair amount, wonders why this poor fellow is too old.

It's been a while since I did the handlbar conversion on my 6th gen. The 5th gen job was easy, with the electrical cables being made so long in...
Big fan of Moto CNC here, too. I've used his conversion setups several times now. On my 6th gen, I was able to finagle the cables and hoses...
2000 miles so far and no issues. It's not pretty but it works fine.
I think I'll hang on for the hundred, thanks.
Yes, it is.
These are sold and pending shipping...

On the way to the geriatric facility, escorted by the lovely Missus.
